Hey SG..what are your thoughts with LG? Personaly my Prime Rig has a Sammy and a Asus, my 2nd has an LG.

LG has be really bitter but perhaps that is just me.
I think long time back I posted about my bad incidents with them.
2 DOA"s, then the DOA replacements wouldn't work right, wouldn't burn anything properly (with there tech support, I went through firmwire updates to using different types of CD/DVD's etc etc) all for nothing.
Perhaps though, I was just a one off.
I know they make good TV's and good Washer and Driers (I have both Ironically).
Just bad luck with the Optical Drives.
I converted to my Samsung w/Lightscribe and I haven't looked back!

I would rather believe and find god doesn't exist than to not believe and find that he does.

I wouldnt call it off topic, we are trying to decide what DVD writers to recommend him =) honestly I like the build as stated with the few sudgestions pointed out though, that kind of a rig would make me jealous =P I think im going to pick up another 640 black one of these days for raid 0 thanks to this thread. My advise on the subject, pioneer or samsung.

Only drives I've bought in the past 5-6 years have all been LG. Not because I am a fanboi but because they are the cheapest generally. Only one I had die was an GCC-H20L that I broke the tray off by accident.
